Tom Johnson's Triumph.
Tom Johnson, mayor of Cleveland.
Ohio, has won one of the most remark
able municipal struggles In the history
of our American cities. After a long
drawn battle with the traction inter
ests of that city, in which millions of
dollars were involved, he lias succeed
ed in winning not only a victory for
himself, but a victory for municipal
ownership and a victory for the peo
ple of Cleveland. This wUl mean a
renewal of niiblic confidence in Tom
Johnson's ability is a fighter in de
fense of the people's interests. He
has accomplished what, he said he
would accomplish if reelected mayor.
Ile had shown his fighting qualities
ii several campaigns ami tne people
of Cleveland believed in him and
rusted him. The proof of this is the
fact that he was reelected In his last
campaign over Congressman Burton,
who was nominated for mayor on the
republican ticket at tlwi direction, so
it is understood, of President Roose
velt himself. But Tom Johnson had
been accustomed to lighting powerful
foes, and he swept aside the opposi
tion of the national administration
with the same remarkable display of
generalship us he has swept aside the
corporation interests of Cleveland with
millions of dollars hack of them. It
was an appropriate celebration of
traction peace in Cleveland when an
the people were given free rides
all day last Tuesday; and when ar
rangements were made to have trac
tion holidays at certain intervals
henceforth under the municipal sys
tem with 3-cent fares and universal
tiansfers.
Tom Johnson's vistory is (he termi
nation of a fight extending over a
period of six years.. Six years ago he
told the people of Cleveland that they
should have a 3-ocnt car fare. He
i lien began the fight, and every re
source known to special privilege was
arrayed against Tom 'Johnson. All
thiit the corporations and shrewd law
yers could do to interiere witn tus
plans they did. Johnson was attacked
from every conceivable quarter and
in every imaginable way. lie was
abused, maligned, vilified, called a
demagogue, agitator and a crank. But
this opposition only made him fight
the harder, and gradually the clouds
of "defeat began to leave and he saw
the light of victory. On the first day
of November, 1900, Mayor Johnson
in person took. the controller oi' a new
trollev car and ran it out of the car
barns and started it oti its first trip.
The car was filled with city officials
of the Municipal Traction company
and others; and on that day the con
ductor collected the first :i-cent fares
ever paid in Cleveland. Johnson him
self acting as motorman ran the car
over the entire 11 miles of track, and,
as it passed along, received the
cheers of the people. The victory
was made complete when the su
preme cquit of thr? United States, in
lanuary. 1!)7, sustained Mayor John-
sou's contentions and opened the way
for Cleveland's control over its own
traction lines. The court held that
the extensions for grants for connect
ing lines did not extend the life of
the original franchises of constituent
lines, and this holding opened up
many new streets of the city. In
junctions by the scores have followed
and more obstacles met, but finally
the traction interests. were forced to
surrender, and Johnson's hm tri
umphs.
Brand Whitlock, mayor of Toledo,
Ohio, in writing recently of Mayor
Johnson's He-cut fare propaganda,
said:
"No, Mayor Johnson's ambiiion is
not a 3-eent fare; it is democracy,
fundamental democracy; his amhitiqn
is the city, a free city; all that he has
ever done, has been to bring about the
free, democratic, American city, the
city with home rule, and his personal
ambition does 'not go beyond being
mayor of such a city."

travel in an electroinoblle, we are par
takers In a revolution more swift and
profound than lias ever before been
enacted upon earth. Until the nine
teenth century fire was justly account
ed the most useful and versatile serv
ant of man. Today electricity is doing
all that fire ever did and doing it let
ter, while it accomplishes uncounted
taskR far beyond the reach of flame,
however ingeniously applied. We may
thus observe under our eyes just such
un Impetus to human Intelligence ami
power as when lire was first subdued
to the purposes of uiau, with the Im
mense advantage that, whereas the
cubjugatinii of tire demanded ages of
weary and uncertain experiment, the
mastery of electricity Is for Ihe most
part the assured work of the nine
leeuth century and in truth very large
ly of Its last three decades. It begins
at once to murry the resources of the
mechanic ami the chemist, the engi
neer and the artist, with Issue attest

"You're making fun of me." she cha'-

"Xo. of course not," asserted Marion
before she could catch back the words.
"I meant the quarrel. Just the same.
Gregory, I shall think up some way to
make our courtship exciting yet."
In spite of this warning Ilolbrook
was completely- surprised when he re

following note from Marion:
"Dear Gregory I've thought of some
